the boundary of their respective dominions. A battle between Marcellus and the Carthaginian forces under Hanno and Epicydes of Syracuse followed, in which the latter were defeated and driven to take shelter within the walls of Agrigento. As a result of the Roman victory the agreement between Carthage and Hieronymus was never carried into effect. An inscription bearing the dedication "ΑΣΚΛΗΠΙΩ KAI IMEPA ΠΟΤΑΜΩ" ("To Asclepius and the Himera River"), must refer to the southern Himera (i.e., the Salso) since it was found at Caltanisetta. The name Salso is also given to a tributary of the Simeto in eastern Sicily.
